Days of wool and roses

Here are some new marbleized wools in my Etsy shop. Lately I like to reference my wools with my dye book colors. I have 2 swatch sets: The Dusty Dye Book set and The Vintage Dye Book set. If you have a set this will make choosing colors online even easier. This should help in deciding on colors as far as value and temperature. So for instance, Red Roses is close to my dye book color Mr Lincoln in value, and a little cooler in temperature. You can see that Mr Lincoln is warmer or has more yellow in it. The colors are close and would look beautiful hooked together in a motif.

I continue to add colors to my Etsy shop, going slowly to limit my exposure to fumes and wool dust. Allergy season is in full swing here in Oregon, so I am being cautious.
